PROFESSIONAL ANTIGEN PRESENTING CELLS Express MHC class I and class II molecules Express co-stimulatory molecules (CD40, B7) Take up extracellular antigens B cells – soluble proteins, toxins ADAPTIVE – Ag specific Macrophages – extracellular pathogens (bacteria, yeast) Dendritic cells – viruses, apoptotic cells INNATE THE ROLE OF PROFESSIONAL ANTIGEN PRESENTING CELLS IN THE IMMUNE RESPONSE Gatekeeper function Sensing pathogens Priming adaptive immune responses Maintenance of self tolerance to self structures Infectious diseases Tissue transplantation Elimination of tumors Autoimmune diseases Dendritic cells are sensors, gatekeepers and messengers Activation induces a phenotype essential for the initiation of the adaptive immune response CONTACT OF DENDRITIC CELLS AND T - LYMPHOCYTES IN LYMPHOID ORGANS Activated dendritic cells act as professional antigen presenting cells MHC-peptide complexes Co-stimulatory molecule Cytokines 1. signal STRANGER 2. signal AMPLIFICATION 3. signal DANGER They are in close contact with specific T lymphocytes INTERDIGITATING RETICULAR (MATURE DENDRITIC) CELL IN T CELL AREAS OF LYMPH NODES NUCLEUS T CELL T CELL CYTOPLASM Cell-surface molecules of the immunoglobulin superfamily initiate lymphocyte adhesion to professional antigen-presenting cells B.

The draining LN was removed 6 hours after injection Capture of an Ag-Specific T Cell by an Ag-Bearing DC Bone-marrow derived DCs (yellow) were pulsed with 1 µM Ova 4 peptide and 10 µM Ova for 1 hour at 37oC, then injected into the footpad of a C57BL/6 recipient. This was followed 6 hours later by i.v. coinjection of OT-I CD8+ T cells (5 µM CFSE, green) and OT-II CD4+ T cells (5 µM SNARF, red).
